T.I. To Lil Wayne: “There Is No Such Thing As Oppression Not Affecting You”

Lil Wayne's interview on Nightline continues to have repercussions. Vic Mensa was the first artist to publicly criticize Weezy for his comments on Black Lives Matter and now T.I. has followed suit. On Sunday, November 6, he posted a video on Instagram in which he watches the interview back for the first time. He writes in the caption that the footage left him "at a complete loss of words."

In a lengthy caption, Tip tagged Wayne directly and told him, "I know you wired a bit different than most other responsible adults, but still nigga u tripping. I don't know what you goin thru,or what you are attempting to avoid but this shit is absolutely unacceptable! You're disrespecting yourself,bringing shame on your family name & tarnishing your legacy."

He went on to say he is prepared to end his long-term friendship with Wayne. "I've been proud to call myself a fan & a friend of Lil Wayne, but if that must end in order to stand up for those who can't do it for themselves...So be it. If you're not prepared for a question in an interview,say No Comment Bro. But stop embarrassing yourself & everyone out here who's been supporting you. There is no middle ground. Oppression knows no neutral party,either you're part of the oppressed,or you with the oppressor. There is no such thing as oppression not affecting you. It's #USorELSE out here."
